nature is imagination

‎"The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity...and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself." William Blake.

I continued to practice daily yoga in February with Yoga with Adriene and loved every moment of it. I do so much better with life when I take the time to practice daily yoga, spend time in nature, and eat properly. It is pretty simple but when life g…
